10 leave this fair old world of our.
but the older | get the more | realize
how this can be. As we grow older

more ties ahead than behind. AS |
stood by the bedside of my diving
brother, a few day ago, and saw him
in the mcdian of life, surrounded by
everything to make life pleasant, aud
saw his little infant daughter. in her
auntie's arms, kissing her little hand
at her dying father, | could not help
asking myself the question sis lie
worth the livin.?" And when | look
ed upon this sad scene, | thought if
this were all, the answer would he,
mo, no." but when | reflected that we
were only pilgrims here, that this was
not intended for our final home, that

that beautiful beyond, when there are
no more partings, no more tears, |
could bow in humble submission to
His holy will and looking beyond this
vale OF tears, realize that at is not all

Aasigted ImmiUranfs

New YORK. June AT a meeting of the emil
grant commissioners OF this city. to-day the
ninety emigrants from Ireland, who came here
the steamer City of Chester, came up The
emigrants had been sent here by the British
government which paid their passage. Their
admission was objected to on the ground that
they were paupers and likely to become public
charges. There was read at the meeting copy
of letter sent to Secretary Bayard by Minister
West. in April last. In it the Brit
ish minister asked whether persons whose
passages were paid partly wholly by the
British government would be permitted to land.
Secretary Bayard, iu reply, cited the laws in
reference to pauper immigrants and said that in
such cases those mentioned by Minister West
suspicion would be excited and they would
be permitted to land unless it was clearly
shown that they were not likely to become public
charges. The commissioners finally decided to
permit the landing of only twenty one.
Others who are now detained on Wards island
ordered to be taken back by the Inman
Steamship Company. 1t is believed the steam
ship company will contest the case in the United
States courts
